Greetings in the name of the Lord.
I'm checking back in with a few more topics of interest that have been on my list since my last entry.
The first topic?
Going off of my anti-psychotic and antidepressant medications that I have been on since 2008.
How?
Michael assists me to push through the chronic, throbbing pain that I have been complaining about.
It's not a cure-all, but it's like being on a morphine drip after a serious accident.
It makes the pain tolerable.
The second topic would be another invention of mine.
One of the main concerns of citizens who protest the construction of the Keystone Pipeline is their fear that having an oil pipeline running through their neck of the woods may pose a potential environmental hazard.
While running this issue through my mind, I realized that the main weakness of traditional oil pipelines is their lack of redundancy.
What do I mean by that?
There is only one layer of steel between the oil and the ground beneath it.
I figured "Why not reinforce the outer steel with an inner component?"
Someone then specifically tossed the idea of an expandable hose into the mix, and the idea was brought to completion.
It is a practical solution to what some see as a huge deal.
You know what actually is a big deal?
A lack of jobs and energy independence.
I wanted to address one last concern briefly before I conclude, and that would be the practice of Yoga.
It's fairly controversial, so I need to chime in on it.
First off, I want to encourage you to first seek the Lord in times of distress.
That being said, although I do not practice Yoga (I have not the inclination nor time to take up the discipline; I also found it boring the one time that I did try it.), I would admonish you to take out a timer and note just how much time you spend practicing Yoga weekly.
Then, I want you to calculate just how much time you spend in prayer, going to church services, and meditating on/reading God's word.
If there is a discrepancy in the time spent in Yoga versus seeking the Lord, I would advise you to adjust your equalizers and balance that out.
Making sure that you put God first will help to keep you healthy and balanced.
It will also keep Him happy, too.
Thank you for your time, and may God truly bless you.
